to Jesus Who saves:

dearest Savior, keep saving us.
please bless the Kol of India to know the truth, which will set them free.

bless M to do well on her test and to write a good research paper -- give her the energy for this.

bless J to recover fully.

bless D to do Your will -- whether that is to go to Romania or not -- and bless him to recover.

those are my three main prayer requests today -- what do You want to talk about? i'm afraid of failure, yet You have not given me a spirit of fear -- how do we reconcile those two facts? get rid of the first one. right. sounds so easy. but if i have to fail to get over my fear of failure, i'm not too keen on that idea. i wish i were braver -- wish i were more emotionally mature. i hate it -- i hate being weak, being stupid, being behind in any way. this is something i need to work on, i know. i just need to accept that i'm a loser and move on. now i'm pouting -- sorry. i just...can't i wish that i were better? i know, i know, i need to get rid of my pride, but at the expense of my self-love? You say You will make me love myself more -- guess i just need to trust You. dearest Savior, keep saving me.
